#20 appease has the synonyms: satisfy and placate on google (if on the gre how do you know which one to choose?)... #2 plastic has the synonym: artificial on google but not impressionable, still it makes sense, good one!

nonpareil, another vocab word :) couldn't agree more!!!!

The presence of 'artificial' in the answer choices for 'plastic' made it really tricky :p

16:10 Greg: A good guess would be innovator, because neo means new.. Me: Oh yess! 15 secs later Greg: neophyte is an amateur. * I loathe myself *

You are absolutely killing it with your videos Greg! Cheers!

Thanks for another great post Greg. I was wondering if you were going to repost your video on the TOEFL that you'd posted a couple of days back, it went offline before I had a chance to have a look at it. It would be great to hear your insights about the test. Thanks again and hope you have a wonderful New Year!

Your explanations are much appreciated!!

Great practice, especially with the word ‘plastic’ Although I knew the meaning, I got it wrong. I was searching for a word like melleable, flexible, so I failed to think out of the box. Impressionable is an impressive synonym for the word plastic. Hopefully my brain has good plasticity. Thanks for your explanations!

Haha. The neighbor joke in the beginning! :D

Thanks. Really appreciate it. You are a fantastic teacher with good movie taste!!

appreciate every explanation from you . Thanks

Sir, Yours sessions are really helping me a lot. please try to make at least 2videos in a week based on vocabulary

I've watched "The Matrix" enough times that i got all of dialogues memorized. It's by far, one of my most favorite movies.

I am so amazed that Greg worked on the New Year's eve! If I had such aspiration, vocab should not be a problem anymore :P

"aspiration" sounds off. Perhaps use zeal, ardor or devotion

@@trunc8 GRE moment lol

i think need is a fine choice for the dearth one, but wanting in the sense of "a lack of" does fit better

Great thank u

I agree with your neighbor Greg 😆( the quote at the beginning)

Gracias amigo.

23/30 indefatigable=tenacious=dogged ,reproach,dearth=lack, stern=dour , irreverent=impertinent , explicable=comprehensible , intrepid

Thanks so much 26/30 done

Thank you for your lecture, it is excellent and your Korean penmanship is perfect .. 수화 hahaha

That quote at the beginning of the video is just GOLD lol

the music at the end sounds arabic its so pleasant anyway thank you greg for all the good material & music!

Greg, your voice is not soporific, it is rather mellifluous.

Literally do not know how some of the people watching this with English not as their first language got over 25/30 on this specific one, I usually get at least 25/30 but this killed me, I got 15/30.

Thank you for your videos Greg! Quick question - doesn't plastic also mean artificial?

27/30 happy!

28/30. Missed Plastic (Impressionable, guessed the other meaning "artificial") and Reproach (express disapproval of, knew this was rebuke and scolding, but didn't connect)

14/30

hey, why is stern's replacement @12:54 question 14 dour? Shouldn't it be sincere? Stern means serious right? Dour means sullen/gloomy. Sincere seems like a better fit to me. Can someone please elaborate?

In the 18th question, answer choices have 2 listed meanings from google - lax and lazy. Will I get a point if I've chosen lax as my answer?

Got 26/30 :)

only managed 21/30 here. Maybe i did this too early in the morning. definitely need to review these words though.

Me hearing windows notification on MAC, am like what the f... ??? Anyways I love you man, respect 100%

the 17, is the A should be synopsis?

30/30

Scored 25/30

Greg: Have you ever seen the matrix? For Keanu's sake!

hey greg. Does appease not mean satisfied????

24/30

What was the music at the beginning?

Robust is antonim I think "long-range" is more appropriate in 30

I would do their homework👍

For question 18, aren't indolent and lax also synonyms? '

At 16:27. What a droll twist. Thank you sir, is there a place to support you pecuniarily?

Hehe Greg, the Angelina Jolie’s movie was called maleficient. yes she was an evil queen.

I like your taste in music

19/30

"plastic" much closer to "artificial" than to "impressionable"

Plastic also means artificial. According to the Apple dictionary:adjective1 made of plastic: plastic bottles. • not genuine; artificial or unnatural: she smiled a little plastic smile | long-distance flights with their plastic food

Appease has two meanings to it - 1) placate , 2) satisfy..isn't it ?

The Greg's neighbor :D

Shouldn't soporific mean more of like soothign than sleep inducing? Question 9

Note to my future self: 5/11/2021 8:50pm: 16/30

Plastic means artificial not impressionable according to the Cambridge Dictionary. Where did you get this meaning of the word from please? dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/plastic

Neophyte Knicks fans!

Pristine means impeccable or without a fault. In question no. 10, unspoiled means not bad but it does not mean without any fault. So the correct answer should be polished

14/30 FUCK.
